IMPROVE your MIX with LOW FREQUENCY cleanup | Mixing for Producers


  • ShaperBox 3 Bundle: The Ultimate Rhythmic Powerhouse Elevate your sound design with the ShaperBox 3 Bundle, a must-have toolkit for modern producers. This versatile collection brings together 11 powerful Cableguys effects—including Time, Pitch, Volume, and the new LiquidShaper—into one intuitive, multiband interface. Whether you're looking for precise sidechain ducking, complex rhythmic glitches, or lush analog-style filtering, ShaperBox 3 makes it easy to inject musical motion into any track. Praised by top producers like David Guetta and industry titans like Sound On Sound, it’s the definitive solution for solving mix problems and finding instant inspiration.

    • Low end cleanup is one of the most important, yet most overlooked techniques for improving a mix. Creating space for all your low end instruments starts with all the OTHER elements—taking care to remove the unneeded lower frequencies in other tracks that are clouding the mix. In this tutorial, mixing engineer Mario Borgatta demonstrates low end cleanup on a track he’s mixing called "OVER IT!" by koby, and demonstrates how to use hi-pass filters, Brick Wall EQ, and make adjustments to the length and relationship of kick drum to the bass so that everything sounds clean. These techniques to avoid a muddy mix will work within any DAW and similar plugins that you like to use.
